This isn’t a ship in trouble — it’s a special type of vessel called a semi-submersible heavy-lift ship. It fills its ballast tanks with seawater to lower the deck underwater, allowing large structures to float above it for loading. Once secured, the ship pumps out the water and lifts the cargo safely. A smart engineering design that makes transporting massive offshore structures possible. #maritime #shipping #seafarers #merchantnavy #oceanengineering | Sailor Rider
